I'm creating my delivery for Sunday at VGF. Is the address the same as the main resort:

4401 Floridian Way
Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830

I can't find a different address for the villas. If so, do I need to meet the Instacart driver at the main hotel lobby?

Thanks,
 
I had problems with the Amazon Prime delivery at VGF, the driver went to the Main Resort first and after a few phone calls made it over to VGF. So it really is up to the driver to know the locations.
 
I have sent stuff there several times. Just one address as people indicated above.
Include your name and room number if you have it. You can put villas in the room number line if you want.
If the package is from Amazon and not large it will go to the main resort but they should send it over to your room eventually. Larger packages will likely end up at the business centre which is just near the bus stop.
 

I've stayed at GFVs the last two years and used Instacart. I also had to be there to accept the delivery since I also had alcohol. Also, last trip had them come twice since I had a second order of alcohol.
If you are getting alcohol you will need to meet them.
I had to put the hotel address in for the order. When I would get a text from the driver, I would let them know I am at the Villas and it's not the hotel but right on the GF property. But, last year and this year, and the second time they came, it was like the drivers were new to GFVs. They just couldn't understand that the DVC area is another building and even when I called the driver since he kept telling me he was waiting outside, he couldn't understand what I was telling him. I had to let one driver know to get out of their car and turn around and look at the DVC building also. I'm guessing if you are just getting food, your process will be much easier LOL

Yikes! I was afraid it would be confusing with the 2 buildings. I don't have alcohol so will they just leave it with the main buildings Bell Services? Since it's our check in day and we don't have much planned, I should be around the hotel just in case of a problem...

Bump - this might be our first time using instacart because we want some fresh fruit and vegetables. With the new delivery policies, if we are NOT getting alcohol, would we still need to be present, or will it be left at bell services? (and would it be left at bell services in the main building if we are staying at the villas?

I just used Instacart last week. I Put in the notes to deliver to VWL lobby. Everything went smooth. I will definitely use them again.

I wasn't present when my groceries were delivered. They were left at the main building but I was told that if you are staying in a villa, sometimes they are left with villa concierge. I was in the villas and mine were not. So I guess it just depends on how busy they are. You can either pick them up from the main buildings bell services or they will deliver them to your room for $6.

Awesome, thank you for the info!
